It hasn't changed all that much. It's refreshing to see some new things in there though. Not that I often look at it anymore.

I was looking at one of my reviews giving the band a 3 star and the result is 3.53.  I also gave the same band a 4 star on another album and the results is 3.54.

I'm not that good at math so that's probably why I didn't understood the wikipedia definition. LOL

Three Floyd and three Genesis top 10 albums. No complaints from me Wink
 
Looking at it, I think the top ten will be a lot less stagnant now. Whether that actually means anything is a nother matter.
 
/ps: I think it should be (audio) studio albums only.

Well, it's certainly shaken things up a bit (CTTE is down at 5). I still believe that proto-prog and prog-related acts should not be included.

It looks a bit weird and not as accurate as the previous one to be honest...

Yes , there is been a upgrade to the algo , it's now based on the more adequate weighted average calculation (more info here : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weighted_average )

I'm very much in shock... I haven't been on Progarchives for a couple of days, and now I see some significant changes in the top 100, for ex. PFM in Top 10, Harmonium just outside of it, Deep Purple in the top 30, S.B.B. at #31, and Dream Theater's "Live Scenes from New York" are the band's highest rated album now, while studio version of it, "SFAM" fell from constant 14-20 way down to 53, just ahead of Beatles's "Abbey Road"... We can even talk about some kind of revolution in the top 100, is there a change to the algorhytm?
